Our brand new series, plundering the new Referee data soon to be available to our members, continues with an analysis of the Gameweek 16 appointments.
We scan the assignments and attempt to pick out the key pairings, assessing the data to decipher the potential impact of certain whistlers on their respective fixtures and the players in line to either suffer or benefit as a result.
Daniels and Duffy
Duffy, Ward (if GK is Pope)
Duffy, Daniels in not
I face a similar decision. But for me I will bench Mbemba for sure, so it is a question of benching one out of Ota ending, ward, Duffy, or Davies. Or if those in meaning Duffy at the moment.
*of those I'm leaning Duffy... Geez
Duff and Ward.
Who is GK?
Fab
Cheers all. Duffy 15 pointer on the way.
How bad is Mustafi injury? Don’t want to ship him out if it’s only about one game.
at a guess, he'll probably miss the midweek fixture as well
50/50 at best for GW17.
I see the "Tom Carrol will score 120+ points this season" grav hasn't shown up in a while 😉
Nor the guy with the Rooney grav who would only go on about Rooney
Haha that dude
Poor Waxys.
I would've just made another account if I was him.
Waxys posted this week... he was gravless
Really?? Link?
Bench one:
A) Ward (WAT)
B) Loftus-Cheeke (BOU)
C) Calvert-Lewin (liv)
C
Gross to Zaha worth a hit? Zaha will become Pogs in 3 GWs
no
Nope
Bench one:
A) Ward (WAT)
B) Zeegelaar (bur)
C) Duffy (hud)
c
I have the cheapskate version of that defence (Lowton and Dunk instead of Ward and Duffy) and I'm benching Zeegelaar.
A
Thanks all
One vote for each, who are you going to bench then? 😀
A
Who did the Reddit dog pick as captain this week?
Think it got rotated.
Reddit dog is AWOL
its gone walkies
Reddit has some comments from Simon Johnson on Morata. Sounds like he had a fever this week, might not start this weekend. Not sure about the dog thing.
Jazard
Play-
A Daniels
B Ward (own Pope)
Daniels
a
thanks
A given you have Pope
My team as of now:
elliot/Forster
Ward/Otamendi/Christensen/jones/moreno
Sterling/salah/doucoure/hazard/loftus cheek
kane/morata/calvert lewin
Please suggest starting line up...leaning towards Kane for captain.
Thanks in advance guys!!
Walker >> Christensen
Or Keep FT??
Have you go Kolasinac? Can you afford the little extra for Alonso?
This
Chistensen hasn't scored till now. Big players like Hazard, Azpi, Morata will get the bonus points. He will have to rely on clean sheets.
Dont have Kola and dont have the fund for Alonso either. The extra funds from the downgrade allows me to do Vardy>> Morata next GW
Kola is the one.
Trippier?
0.3 ITB 2 FT. Any suggestions? Thinking a boring Carroll > RLC for now and bank the other free
Fabianski (Elliot)
Daniels Alonso Otamendi
Salah Sterling Gross Choupo
Morata Vardy Kane
(Mee, Dunk, Carroll)
carroll move
Thanks!
Vardy to Firmino? All the focus has been on Cout but Firmino still got max bonus last week and has shown a huge uptake in form...
Appreciate the reply. I'll consider it. It's funny cause Vardy came in for Firmino a few weeks ago.
Yeah... Firm was off form and Leicester had a great run of fixtures so makes sense. Who knows what's going to happen in this game lol
Vardy's been annoying. The fixtures are there but...smh
Score prediction for Liverpool vs Everton
1-1 for me
Have no Lpool love but a 3-1 win for them for me
3-1, BFS wake-up call
I'd expect Liverpool to score 2+ on their current form
8-0 Liverpool.
I am still ignoring Salah as captain like a tool but EVE back line could be
Kenny Holgate Williams Martina
That is poor
I thought Keane and Jagielka are back.
Ah ok. A bit better.
Big Sam
Who would you bench this week?
A) Speroni (BOU)
B) DDG (MCI)
and 2 defenders:
1) Otamendi (mun)
2) Daniels (cry)
3) Kiko (bur)
4) Mee (WAT)
5) Dunk (hud)
B35
B 24
Always start DDG.
What he said
A 4, 2
A24
I'm actually on benching A12 at the moment, is benching Otamendi madness?
No, it's an understandable choice and fwiw if I were to put a bet on anyone getting a red card on Sunday, it would be on this reckless Argentine
These are close calls, go with yer gut if in doubt.
*Save these answers*
Why are people getting rid of Sane for Ramsey? What is the main thing leading to this decision?
The downgrade allows for extra funds I suppose, also Ramsey has been playing great recently and so has his team (despite losing to United, they looked threatening)
That's fair. Thanks. I still feel it will be a regretted move.
Yeah, selling a City player will always bite you in the ass from time to time, no doubt. But Rambo is Mr. Consistent this year, so there is promise in him.
Madness, Rambo a great option tho
Sorry guys, slightly underwhelming question but....play RLC over Choupo?
Can't decide between RLC v Choupo.....or playing Mee v Kiko.....all help/suggestions hugely appreciated X
RLC & Mee for me, homers
Sanchez and Toby out but you would think Spurs would still stay fairly resilient. RLC even though he's dropped back when Benteke has played
Thanks guys, confirmed what I was thinking
And Kiko for me. Watford very attacking even with Burnley being as solid as they have been
Kiko over Mee? Defo dont want to bench either of them but kinda fancied Bur to keep a cleanie.....
A) Kola mahrez firmino
B) Tripper mane vardy
C) tripper ramsey morata
A or C I guess
Probably A
a has a smoother feel to it? Don't you think so?
Yes
c
Any further news on Morata?
What, after getting on the bus? Nah, something about a scan in the ES. Maybe don't buy but if you have hope, good bench etc.
Damn it, just when I decided to (c) Kane. Surely this increases Hazards potential?
Not necessarily, Chelsea with no Morata will be a weaker side as a result.
Some think he's a bit lost w/o his mate. This is all subjective of course, he maybe alright, Haz maybe great w/o him... we'll soon see.
One thing's for sure, the move from Haz cap to Kane cap will be quite a narrative, again
Hi ... Is this GW when you take the classifieds to The Cup?
FPL Cup qualifiers.
Close to impossible to not qualify this season.
X DDG
X Christensen Otamendi Kenny Tarkowski
Sterling Hazard Salah Richarlison RLC
DLC Kane Morata
a) Perreira Kiko
b) Speroni Zeeg
A, easy for me
Trying to assess how nailed is Mariappa..through a couple of Qs.. any insights are truly appreciated!
if watford change their formation and go four at the back, who of the back 3 will be dropped?
And, if and when Britos recovers, whose place will be most under threat?
He's the one for the chop if they go 2, Britos is sheet, Kaboul is the threat.
apologies I did not understand sheet in this context.. are you saying britos will not start when is back?
He is saying Britos is crap at football and I can't disagree with that. Mariappa should play if they stick with 5 at the back, when they go back to 4 Kaboul is the preferred choice.
thanks, that’s very helpful. I think ill take the risk with mariappa then..i will likely need that 0.3 saving to get DLC for Niasse soon...
How close is Kaboul to a return?
Ddg (elliot)
Francis christensen simpson (lowton moreno)
Salah hazard richarl rlc sane
Kane jesus (niasse)
Whom you would get from this list to replace moreno 4.6 sane 8.8 jesus 10.3 all of them or 2 or 1 your call ?
Kola sanchez tripper ramsey laca vardy mahrez mane firmino murray
Who to captain?
Pope (elliot)
Monreal, Christensen
Pope (Elliot)
Monreal, Christensen, Daniels (Mariappa, Mbemba)
Sanchez, Sterling, Salah, Richarlison (RLC)
Kane, Morata, DCL
Sanchez or Kane. I'd take a punt on Sanchez if I had him
same as i think. atm, i put San(C)ez and Kane (VC)
kane
Who would u start this GW?
Mee or Daniels.
Asking almost the same below. Maybe Daniels as my keeper will be Pope, unless Elliot play
daniels
Benched Mustafi
Which 2 should I play
1. Duffy
2. Mee
3. Daniels
GK have Pope & Elliot (maybe lost his place again?)
Mee and Daniels
Cheers. Thanks.
Best replacement for Mustafi ??
A. Sakho
B. Kiko Femenia
C. Zeegeler
A
Thinking 4-3-3 this week.
Play:
A) Mee
B) Dunk
A everyone thinks hud are sheet at home, they're not.
Thanks. By that logic, you'd put RLC over Dunk on your bench then?
Yes, I'd start RLC next 2, nevermind bench.
Heh, this is my current set up. What would you change?
Fabianski (Elliot)
Daniels Alonso Otamendi Mee
Salah Sterling Gross
Morata Vardy Kane
(RLC, Dunk, Choupo)
I'd be starting RLC over Daniels this week and next.
Dunk's on a great goalscoring run, gotta play him
Almost got me going there
G2G?
Pope
Duffy Christensen Daniels
Salah Richarlison Sterling Hazard
Abraham Kane(c) Morata
Elliot | RLC | Mee | Moreno
Looks good to me
I think I'm going Couts (c) Kane (vc).... Good idea or madness..?
Also have...
Salah
Hazard
Morata
You'll be alright
Na don't go Cout, gotta be Kane, Haz or Salah.
Kolasinac or Monreal??. Azpi, Alonso or Christensen??
Help...
Kola. The last one's your taste. If you need to cut cost, then Christensen.
6 years, 4 months agoWhich 2 defenders would you bench?
Duffy, Otamendi, Ward, Daniels, Christensen
